This is a great start for pricing for sure! I have a follow up question to Strategy #1. There isn't any viable competition around here that I can find except for one company that does medical deliveries and I'm fine doing all the other deliveries that are out there. Would you suggest just sticking with #2 and go from there?</p>MelissaThu, 08 Feb 2018 16:52:08 -0000Re: The Importance of the Business Planhttp://www.courierpros.com/2010/07/the-importance-of-the-business-plan/#comment-3679799226<p>Also the Company will loose the productivity of their employee if they use them only to send something than paying a single dollar and have the courier provider to do the job.</p><p>More success to us :)</p>Aldrin ReyesWed, 27 Dec 2017 00:47:21 -0000Re: How to Pick the Perfect Delivery Vehiclehttp://www.courierpros.com/2010/02/how-to-pick-the-perfect-delivery-vehicle/#comment-3671443011<p>I am a single mother looking to do courier start up business can you please give me any pointers like how much should I pay for bonding to start off with</p>NormaWed, 20 Dec 2017 14:43:04 -0000Re: What You Need When Starting Outhttp://www.courierpros.com/2010/10/what-you-need-to-start-out/#comment-3603011263<p>Hi,<br>in light of all the greed, poor service, and overall mediocrity.

The prospecting you talked about is something i have learnt from you but my challenge is how do i convince prospective corporate clients and make them see reasons why they need my service. in other words what and how is the best way to convince them so i can pitch scheduled deliveries. i wouldnt mind a guide on sales sent to my mail box.

Your most important skill is being comfortable in dealing with people. No amount of education is as important as this talent. I've been on the road for 42 years and love it more now that I'm in my 60's than I did in my 20's. Please feel free to email me anytime. I love to teach. I'm fluent in Spanish and English and am studying other languages while I drive. Being in San Diego County, we have over 160 languages spoken here. It's a fabulous opportunity for those of us willing to learn.</p><p>Russell Tellefson<br>russelljt14@gmail.com</p>Russell TellefsonSat, 17 May 2014 15:11:08 -0000Re: What You Need When Starting Outhttp://www.courierpros.com/2010/10/what-you-need-to-start-out/#comment-1450760244<p>I am trying to start a messenger or courier service. .
